Breakthrough Device Criteria Criterion 1: "provide for more effective treatment or diagnosis of life threatening or irreversibly debilitating human disease or conditions; AND Criterion 2: (A) that represent breakthrough technologies; (B) for which no approved or cleared alternatives exist; (C) that offer significant advantages over existing approved or cleared alternatives, including the potential, compared to existing approved alternatives, to reduce or eliminate the need for hospitalization, improve patient quality of life, facilitate patients’ ability to manage their own care (such as through self-directed personal assistance), or establish long-term clinical efficiencies; or (D) the availability of which is in the best interest of patients.” Reference: Section 515(b) of Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act
How do you meet Criterion 1?
